Supported Panels
Winstar WJ70N3TYJHMNG0 (DSI):
rzv2n-hummingboard-iiot-panel-dsi-WJ70N3TYJHMNG0.dtbo
Note: The DSI panel is sold part of “HummingBoard RZ/V2N IIOT” Evaluation Kits, for separate availability contact sales@solid-run.com.
Enable Panel in Software
On HummingBoard-IIoT supported panels are enabled by DeviceTree Overlays.
Edit file extlinux.conf on the first partition of the board adding the line starting with “FDTOVERLAYS” - either from a PC, or from the device serial console, then reboot. The resulting file should look similar to the example below (line 5 is the important addition, substitute the filename based on actual panel from the list above):
default Yocto
label Yocto
kernel /Image
fdtdir /
FDTOVERLAYS ../renesas/rzv2n-hummingboard-iiot-panel-dsi-WJ70N3TYJHMNG0.dtbo
append root=PARTUUID=076c4a2a-02 rootwaitNote: Note the FDTOVERLAYS line can be extended with additional overlays e.g. for adding cameras.
For editing on device can use nano text editor:
mount /dev/mmcblk1p1 /boot
nano /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf
# save with ctrl+o, exit with ctrl+x
sync
rebootElectrical Connection
Carefully review the connections shown below, wrong orientation of cable may damage the panel.
Winstar WJ70N3TYJHMNG0 (DSI)
LVDS panel is connected to J25 on the HB-IIoT (same side of PCB as SoM and M.2 connectors). The cable used should expose contacts at the upper side of the panel, facing away from the PCB. The connector on HB-IIoT supports contacts on either side.
Note: Ensure cable is connected exactly as shown in the picture, wrong orientation may damage the panel.
